Between this and the featured partner links, well, fark is no longer my favorite place.

What, you're not just chomping at the bit to learn Eight Things You Never Knew About Roller Derby, every single goddamn day?

Hey, it could change! Did you ever think about that? Scientists are doing research every day on Roller Derby and I for one am holding my breath for new insight. So, I read that sponsor link every day hoping to read about the latest breakthrough.

I mean, other than you having family on the force? Can I call the cops for all my sketchy Craigslist dealings, if I had any sketchy Craigslist dealings?

/don't//haven't used CL in ages, but when the SO bought his bike there he got verbally biatch-slapped from me for meeting the couple in a secluded apartment complex with $600 in hand///at least they were legit bike fanatics moving out of country; he ran into them getting their 'good' bikes tuned up at the shop before shipping them to Europe a few hours later

A couple years ago I responded to an ad for a tablet. Woman told me to come over and check it out. I showed up to her VERY nice house, but she wasn't there. I called, left a vm, then took off.

30 minutes later she calls and wants me to come back. I explain that it's too far of a trip to make twice so I would pass. Over the next couple of hours she continues to call with increasingly more urgent requests for me to come back. She keeps talking about her divorce and need ofmoney. Her last call ends with, "Just come back...I'll suck you off too!"

To this day I am so glad she wasn't home when I showed up. That might have ended up pretty ugly...or a letter to Penthouse forum I guess.

I'm currently using the roommate's computer while she's out of town. SO using mine while his is in the shop. No ABP or NS.

Holy crap, I'm surprised people DON'T biatch about the sponsored links more than they do in threads. Or do the mods just delete them?

/annoying as f--k//at least open comments on that sh-t... I'm sure the links are so awesome people are just aching to discuss the Eight Things they Just Learned about Roller Derby

It would be so much better if we were allowed to comment on the featured partner links. I imagine we'd get some gold out of those threads

Yup, I skip them because they dont let you comment. I come to fark for the threads not necissarily for the articles. Though I will click the articles to read what the thread is talking about of course dnrtfa is a common quote around here.

BarkingUnicorn:I put a TV on Craigslist years ago. Within an hour, a chick came to my home, alone except for her 2 year-old daughter and $400 cash. I never understood why she did that.

Because despite the 1 or 2 incidents we hear about weekly, there are hundreds of thousands of transactions daily that occur between normal human beings not bent on destroying ourselves through Craigslist?

My wife and mother are paranoid about it...I use it consistently. If the hair on the back of your head is standing up, tell them to meet at a police station or high vis neutral place. If you must stay at your house, make sure you state that you are armed (even if you aren't). Trusting people will still come for your item if they really want it.
